from my blog, "Day of Praise"
In
an article by the "Deseret Morning News" in Salt Lake City, I was very surprised and saddened to read the following quote:
"Charles L. Webb, LDS stake President in Abilene, Texas, said he has discouraged Church members from helping out
in the name of the LDS Church to avoid confusion between the two faiths, but said they should offer their services as individuals."
Yet, we share the same scriptures:
"San Angelo 2nd Ward Bishop Jeffrey Bushman was contacted by a chaplain helping the FLDS women when they were being housed at Fort Concho. The women had requested copies of the Book of Mormon.
He sent them some copies."
****************************
It's ironic, but I believe the little FLDS children are truly more free than their captors, the Texas CPS. These innocent children have a strong faith and hope in Jesus Christ, while the Texas "do-gooders" only seem to have faith in their own regulations and governmental socialism.
"Wherefore, hear my voice and follow me, and you shall be a free people, and ye shall have no laws but my laws when I come, for I am your lawgiver, and what can stay my hand?"~Jesus Christ
(Doctrine and Covenants 38:22)
Revelation given through Joseph Smith, the Prophet at Fayette, New York, January 2, 1831.
